For biochemists, it's the which-came-first question: oxygen production by photosynthesis or oxygen consumption by aerobic ...

The process of separating useful molecules from mixtures of other substances accounts for 15% of the nation's energy, emits 100 million tons of carbon dioxide and costs $4 billion annually.

They attempted to polymerize two monomers: a tetrahedral molecule with four primary amines (-NH 2) at its vertices (TAM) and a triangular molecule with aldehydes (-CHO) at its vertices (TFPT/TFPB). In ...
